Happy ending for hair salon owners detained for offering sexual services

Three owners of a "hair salon" in South China's Guangdong Province will receive state compensation after being released from detention for organizing the service of masturbation, as a local court has ruled that masturbation is not considered an act of prostitution.

Li Zhanwu, Huang Shuliang and Li Zhanwen were acquitted of all charges and will most likely receive a total compensation of 190,000 yuan ($31,047) on Thursday from government for violation of their personal freedom, Li Jingfei, the attorney of the three owners, told the Global Times.

The three had organized sexual services such as masturbation and "breast massage," in which a woman massages a client using her breasts, in their "hair salon."

. . .

"The Ministry of Public Security released a regulation that classifies masturbation and 'breast massage' as prostitution, but this regulation has no effect in legal proceedings, which means anyone involved in such services should not face prosecution," Chen Tao, a lawyer from Beijing Junyong Law Firm, told the Global Times.

I will bet the crowds are fantastic now.

 

But then, they are for prostitution too.
